Special Olympics, privately owned and headquartered in the US, founded in 1968, operates as a non-profit organization with approximately 2,030 employees. The company also functions as a tier 1 media tech buyer.

On July 7, 2026, Guatemala's women's team defeated Team USA in a soccer match, with midfielder Daroulin Ávila contributing to the attack by assisting on several goals and delivering accurate passes that consistently found her teammates. Previously, on July 6, the organization highlighted how unified leadership is redefining workplace inclusion, referencing a pivotal study on the employment of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Belgium, which was presented during a symposium before the 2014 Special Olympics European Summer Games. Earlier, on July 1, Special Olympics outlined its "Journey to the Cup—Inclusion On and Off the Field," detailing various roles including a Unified Partner Goalkeeper for Special Olympics Guatemala, a Women’s Team Coach for Special Olympics Bharat (India), and a Men’s Team Athlete Team Co-Captain for Special Olympics Côte d’Ivoire.
